It was perfect for our event. It's beautiful there. I love it there and what they've done with it. It's very clean and serene. I've been going there for around 40 years. I always brought my children there for educational programs about wildlife. Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to celebrate there.

Very clean shelter and area. Trash cans on site making disposal of garbage a breeze. Easy access to very clean bathrooms. Will definitely rent in the future.
